Abstract excerpt
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have associated 76 loci with the risk of developing melanoma. However, understanding the molecular basis of such associations has remained a challenge because most of these loci are in non-coding regions of the genome. Here, we integrated data on epigenomic markers, three-dimensional (3D) genome organization, and expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) from...
